I just tested this on 5.12 with a detailed auto-filled transaction,
making test edits and clicking into another transaction.
I deleted the memo, account, and amount from a split line but didn't use
the 'delete split' function.
The result was deleting the split, with an added one to the Imbalance
account for the missing amount. (the auto-fill transaction was balanced)
Removing any combination of Memo/Account/Amount but not all three,
resulted in the changes being reverted.
In each test, clicking into a different transaction *committed* the
improperly edited one. It did not go away.
The only way to do that is either let it commit and delete it, or use
Transaction > Cancel Transaction or the Cancel button.

Adrien

You can tell GnuCash to stop messaging you to commit a transaction when you
click on another. The options include This Time, This Session, and Forever.
TBH, I've never heard that a transaction would revert if you clicked out of it.
Obviously, if you've changed the transfer to a nonexistent account, it will
still stop, but if you've changed to a different (existing) account-- or
changed a text field-- it would just commit it.
